Reason: Persistent addition of unsourced content. Waxworker (talk) 12:55, 15 February 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
- Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Bbb23 (talk) 19:32, 15 February 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – This is a highly contentious ongoing conflict. Unregistered users have gotten their attention on it, which is becoming a problem. Kautilya3 (talk) 14:07, 15 February 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

Reason: Subject has been reported dead by several self published sources, however, no RS is reporting it yet. Have had many well-meaning but BLP-inexperienced editors trying to update the article with death info from these sources; request increase to EC protection. 🌸wasianpower🌸 (talk • contribs) 14:11, 15 February 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

Reason: I am requesting page protection for Ponnar Shankar due to continuous vandalism by a specific user, Minakshi Pillai. This user has repeatedly engaged in disruptive edits, particularly targeting articles related to Vellalars and related topics. The repeated vandalism is affecting the integrity of the page and its content.
Additionally, I would like to clarify that some of the historical and folkloric information in the article comes from oral traditions, which may limit the availability of high-quality sources. However, these details are still valuable for documenting cultural history.
I kindly request that appropriate action be taken, such as page protection or user intervention, to prevent further vandalism. Mr.fakepolicy (talk) 18:52, 15 February 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
